Default wiring issues... many... first...

Hello,

I am sorry- I am about to flood the thread with a bunch of wiring issues. The car- was partially disassembled when I got it. So I have no reference to what wires go where, and my repair manual is not very helpful.... on top of that- I have 'old eyes' and 40- year old wiring... so basically I am lost. My apologies in advance- but thought it best to post each separately so they don't get confused. The AC compressor is gone- so some wires may be for it... so I can just wrap them.

First up- these wires are on right side.. I think they go to the kick-down switches on the throttle...


This first set- I am not sure... but linked is the black heat wrap- to the second set...

You’re gonna have to go back and clarify what model year and engine you have.

maybe add it as an automated signature. It’s such a handy feature.

From other pics looks looks like a Marelli car.

I looked over my posts... my signature is on there... just not really highlighted at all. Will add something to it to stand out more.

OK.... got some figured out... My wiring question #2- connects onto the first clips and second set- go onto the Full Throttle switch. I found a mention of it in manual... and not on wiring diagram anywhere.

I belive the 2-green wires in post #7... go to the kick-down switch- I actually found on the wiring diagram... it shows 'one' green wire going to the switch...

I found desktop viewing differs from phone viewing as regards signature info shown.
Including reference to model etc. in the post itself fixes that.

Hello, so is there possibly a manual- or company to get a manual from.... that you recommend? That will be better than the Haynes one I have? I did look on-line and find several. The wiring diagrams you posted- are much clearer- and well.... better, than what I have. Hopefully there is more consistent info from a different manual.
